Drywall: Hanging and Taping: Professional Techniques for Great Results

Great resource to get started with the basics of drywalling.

I have been a regular reader of Fine Home Building Magazine for years and the Author of this book, Myron Ferguson has been featured many times of the years. I recently decided to take on a drywall project in a small room in my home, but have little experience actually hanging and finishing drywall. I'm also a perfectionist. Most things nobody in the world would notice, drive me nuts, so it had to be perfect. I purchased this book through Amazon and what a tremendous resource it proved to be. Admitedly, I didn't read it word for word, I used it as a reference as I progressed through my project. In the end it turned out beautifully and, although not 100% perfect, it is pretty darn close, close enough that nothing drives me nuts and pretty darn good for a novice drywaller. This book saved me $100's in the end. Thanks Myron.

This book is very good and informative and will be very useful when I start renovating my house. Would recommend to others

An excellent book for the beginner. Deals with lots of techniques. An excellent book for someone starting out and a good reference for someone who doesn't do it enough. Probably more knowledge than a do it yourself needs. Might be confusing as a result.Excellent book, highly recommended.Ferguson is legend among drywallers

Should have bought this book years ago. My drywall skills are much better, but more importantly I'm doing it in about half the time and effort. And FAR less drywall dust floating around my house.
